In 1982 the staffs of The Kansas City Star and The Kansas City Times won the Pulitzer Prize for Local General or Spot News Reporting for their coverage of the Hyatt Regency Hotel disaster and the work that uncovered its causes. This commemorative medal keeps that moment in hand. It would sit well on a desk or shelf as a paperweight or display piece, and it should interest journalism buffs, Kansas City history collectors and newspaper memorabilia fans.
Details
- The front is inscribed "The Pulitzer Prize / HONORIS CAUSA / 1982 / Local spot news reporting" around a left-facing bust portrait, in the style of the classic Pulitzer medal design.
